very sweet post marina...thankyou...Im quite artistic and usually a perfectionist but just not 'there' at hte moment...a bit of time and things should all get back to normal..and one thing...you shouldnt say you could never do anything....I have found often its more about confidence and a little time than about talent...you should maybe give it a go but something simple to start and bigger...i was maybe a little too confident in thinking I could do mini hello kitty heads on all the cupcakes lol....(insert wrong answer buzzer sound lol)...like in anything if you dont laugh you will cry!

I reckon my DH would have a blast knocking things like this out (well I nominate him to as he is now the official cake decorator in this house lol)

You did really well Kim all things considered. And it is always a learning curve when it comes to kids parties. The time pressure we seem to put ourselves under  :-)) :-))

Frozzie next time do them in royal icing, far easier to make although you do have to make them a day ahead and let dry overnight. You use royal icing for the outline and then flood the motifs using a slightly looser mixture. Once dry they can be picked up with a flat palette knife and add to the cake.
However I think they still turned out ok and I bet the kids loved them.

Why do they think you're going to have a hard winter Frozzie?
